This is an opinion piece from the Ithaca Voice which is related to development. The author is a fellow SSPer whom I met up with while he was attending Cornell. Great guy, and I'm thankful to say he is as interested in Ithaca development as myself.

An update from the Ithacating blog. Item #4 is interesting; possible compromise for the affordable housing/tax abatement issue.

Whichever proposal is chosen will have a huge impact on downtown.

Unfortunately this week's Ithacating blog entry is not filled with good news.

https://ithacating.com/2018/08/18/ne...2018/#comments

But there are a couple of positives.

All four look pretty interesting. The second or third might be the best ones for imagery.

I have a feeling whatever one is chosen is going to go through quite a few changes before final approval.

As noted in post #476 above, Ithaca lost out to Owego in a competition for a $10,000,000 state grant to improve downtown. Seems the city may have lost out on some of the over $250 million more in proposed developments. From the Ithaca Voice:
